High/Low Blue Ruffle Halter Dress & Lindi Skincare

Blue Ruffle Halter c/o / Nude Stilettos / Drop Earrings / Liz & Honey Bracelet c/o / Lindi Skincare c/o

Let me preface this post by noting that yes, it’s completely ridiculous to shoot a dress like this in a field in the mountains. But since I was on vacation in the mountains and time is of the essence, I played Cinderella a bit in the outdoors. (Which is all well and good until one of the passersby sees you parading around in this dress in the wilderness. Crazy lady alert!)

I was always enamoured with the beautiful pale blue dress Cinderella wore, and when I saw this one online, it reminded me so much of it…with a modern twist. As a short girl, I don’t wear a lot of high/low dresses, but this one has such a pretty flow to the fabric and the ruffle details on it, and I couldn’t resist. I kept the jewelry simple with a sparkling bracelet from Liz and Honey, and a trio of bangles on the other arm. I went with a nude shoe, though white would have been beautiful, too. I also thought a pale lemon yellow could be a great way to mix it up as well.

It’s no secret that I try skincare brands constantly, looking for new gems to add to my routine. I wear (what feels like) ten pounds of makeup to work everyday, so finding an amazing cleanser, serum, moisturizer or anything that works well is worth the investment. I got the chance to try Lindi Skincare while I was in Colorado, and it was the perfect thing to have around in high altitude! Lindi Skin was created as the first complete skincare line designed specifically for people with the most compromised skin; people undergoing cancer treatment, dealing with sensitive skin, or just needing safe and gentle products in their home. (Side note: if you have a loved one in your life dealing with cancer, these products are perfect for their special condition. I love that Lindi has specific products for those dealing with Chemo and Radiation.) The face wash is soothing and doesn’t irritate, the serums are light and smell refreshing, and don’t even get me started on how amazing the moisturizer feels. My skin has become finicky after the past few years of heavy makeup at work, so these products are a great fit for keeping my skin clear and in balance!
